description Purpose of the study. Identify measures to optimize the quality of life of children and adolescents with obesity. Materials and methods. Bibliographic, statistical and sociological methods. Results. It is noted an insufficient level of registration of obesity among children. During the study it was found that true prevalence of obesity and overweight in children and adolescents in Kharkiv was 151,0 ± 5,2. 22 factors of risk had a reliable impact on the development of overweight in children and adolescents. The main risk factors for the formation of the overweight were biological and social and hygienic. It was proved that the relative average life quality index of children and adolescents with obesity was 60,7 ± 0,5%, and the most significant were restrictions in the physical (Rx = –6,8) and psychological and emotional (Rx = –4,4) spheres. The revealed shortcomings of medical assistance were: insufficient level of timely detection of the disease, medical-diagnostic process, a very low level of coverage by clinical supervision (29,6 ± 2,7%), insufficient medical and hygienic education of the parents and, as a result and an unreasonable loading on specialized care. Based on the results of the research, the main measures to optimize the quality of life of obese children were identified. Conclusions. Thus, to solve the problem of obesity in children such structures as local governments, educational institutions, healthcare institutions and public organizations should be obligatory involved. In particular, leading measures to optimize medical care were identified.
